Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive age-related neurodegenerative brain disorder, which leads to loss of memory and other cognitive dysfunction. The underlying mechanisms AD pathogenesis are very complex still not fully explored. Cholinergic neuronal loss, accumulation amyloid plaque, metal ions dyshomeostasis, tau hyperphosphorylation, oxidative stress, neuroinflammation, mitochondrial dysfunction major hallmarks AD. current treatment options for acetylcholinesterase inhibitors (donepezil, rivastigmine, galantamine) NMDA receptor antagonists (memantine). These FDA-approved drugs mainly provide symptomatic relief without addressing the pathological aspects progression. So, there an urgent need novel drug development that only addresses basic but also shows neuroprotective property. Various research groups across globe working on multifunctional agents amelioration using different core scaffolds their design, carbamate among them. Rivastigmine was first investigated management. fragment, scaffold act as potential inhibitor acetylcholinesterase. In this review, we summarize last 10 years conducted modification with substituents primarily target ChE inhibition, reduce modulate Aβ aggregation.

Background: Life expectancy is increasing along with the rising prevalence of cognitive disorders. Among factors that may contribute to their prevalence, modifiable risk such as diet be primary importance. Unarguably, plant-based diets rich in bioactive compounds, polyphenols, showed potential decreasing neurodegenerative Therefore, aim present study investigate whether exposure components diets, namely phenolic acids, affect status older Italian adults. Methods: The demographic, lifestyle and dietary habits a sample individuals living southern Italy were analyzed. Dietary intake was assessed through food frequency questionnaires (FFQs). Data on acids content foods estimated using Phenol-Explorer database. Cognitive evaluated Short Portable Mental Status Questionnaire. Multivariate logistic regression analyses used assess associations. Results: mean 346.6 mg/d. After adjustment for confounding factors, highest quartile total acid less likely have impaired (OR = 0.36 (95% CI: 0.14, 0.92)); similarly, analysis subclasses beneficial effect toward greater hydroxycinnamic 0.35 0.13, 0.91)). individual only higher caffeic inversely associated 0.32 0.11, 0.93)); notably, association ferulic significant when adjusting background characteristics, not adherence Mediterranean diet. Conclusions: This revealed intakes significantly cognition, emphasizing possible role prevention

Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a progressive neurodegenerative disorder and the leading cause of dementia worldwide. The limited pharmacological approaches based on cholinesterase inhibitors only provide symptomatic relief to AD patients. Moreover, adverse side effects such as nausea, vomiting, loss appetite, muscle cramps, headaches associated with these drugs numerous clinical trial failures present substantial limitations use medications call for detailed insight heterogeneity development preventive multifactorial therapeutic strategies urgent basis. In this context, we herein report series quinoline-thiosemicarbazone hybrid therapeutics selective potent cholinesterases. A facile multistep synthetic approach was utilized generate target structures bearing multiple sites chemical modifications establishing drug-receptor interactions. all synthesized compounds were fully established using readily available spectroscopic techniques (FTIR, 1H- 13C-NMR). vitro inhibitory results revealed compound 5b promising lead inhibitor an IC50 value 0.12 ± 0.02 μM, 5-fold higher potency than standard drug (galantamine; = 0.62 0.01 μM). synergistic effect electron-rich (methoxy) group ethylmorpholine moiety in conjugates contributes significantly improving inhibition level. Molecular docking analysis various vital interactions amino acid residues reinforced results. Kinetics experiments competitive mode while ADME properties favored translation identified into safe candidates pre-clinical testing. Collectively, activity data from key physicochemical merit further research ensure design high-quality disease.

It has become increasingly apparent that defective insulin signaling may increase the risk for developing Alzheimer’s disease (AD), influence neurodegeneration through promotion of amyloid formation or by increasing inflammatory responses to intraneuronal β-amyloid. Recent work demonstrated hyperglycemia is linked cognitive decline, with elevated levels glucose causing oxidative stress in vulnerable tissues such as brain. The ability β-amyloid peptide form β-sheet-rich aggregates and induce apoptosis made fibrils a leading target development novel pharmacotherapies used managing treatment neuropathological conditions AD-related decline. Additionally, deposits β-sheets folded amylin, homeostasis regulator, are also present diabetic patients. Thus, therapeutic compounds capable reducing intracellular protein aggregation models neurodegenerative disorders prove useful ameliorating type 2 diabetes mellitus symptoms. Furthermore, both conditions, AD, characterized chronic accompanied presence dysregulated biomarkers. This review presents current evidence describing role various small bioactive molecules known ameliorate amyloidosis subsequent effects prevention AD. highlights potential efficacy peptide–drug conjugates targeting targets.

Toxic aggregated amyloid-β accumulation is a key pathogenic event in Alzheimer's disease. Treatment approaches have focused on the suppression, deferral, or dispersion of fibers and plaques. Gene therapy has evolved as potential therapeutic option for treating disease, owing to its rapid advancement over recent decade. Small interfering ribonucleic acid recently garnered considerable attention gene ability down-regulate genes with high sequence specificity an almost limitless number targets, including those that were once considered undruggable. However, lackluster cellular uptake destabilization small biological environment restrict application, necessitating development vector can safeguard genetic material from early destruction within bloodstream while effectively delivering across blood-brain barrier. Nanotechnology emerged possible solution, several delivery systems utilizing nanoparticles been shown bypass challenges regarding delivery. By reducing enzymatic breakdown components, nanomaterials carriers considerably enhanced efficiency therapy. Liposomes, polymeric nanoparticles, magnetic dendrimers, micelles are examples nanocarriers designed, each own set features. Furthermore, advances specific neurotrophic compounds via provided promising results relation augmenting cognitive abilities. In this paper, we highlight use different targeted acid-mediated silencing platform

ABSTRACT Alzheimer's disease (AD) is a chronic progressive, age‐related neurodegenerative brain disorder characterized by the irreversible decline of memory and other cognitive functions. It one major health threat 21st century, which affects around 60% population over age 60 years. The problem this even more because existing pharmacotherapies only provide symptomatic relief without addressing basic factors disease. extracellular deposition amyloid β (Aβ) to form senile plaques, intracellular hyperphosphorylation tau neurofibrillary tangles (NFTs). Due complex pathophysiology disease, various hypotheses have been proposed, including cholinergic, Aβ, tau, oxidative stress, metal–ion hypothesis. Among these, cholinergic Aβ are primary targets for AD. Therefore, continuous advances made in developing potential cholinesterase inhibitors N ‐methyl‐D‐aspartate (NMDA) receptor antagonists delay progression restore neurotransmission. In review article, we tried comprehensively summarize recent advancement NMDA antagonist (memantine) their hybrid analogs as disease‐modifying agents treatment Furthermore, also depicted design, rationale, SAR analysis memantine‐based hybrids used last decade
